The Metal Gear Marathon 2017

Kept you waiting, huh?

After somehow defeating our goal last year of $5,000 (making the total raised for Child's Play to over a cool $10K, making us a 'GOLD LEVEL' Child's Play-affiliated charity in the process), we've been struggling to think of what we can do to make this year's Metal Gear Marathon the biggest Metal Gear-related display we can possibly display.

(Oh really? Well what about Metal Gear Mobile? The little-known mobile game made solely for Nokia phones that came out in the mid-2000's?)

If you're asking "Did they purchase a decade-plus old phone, track down an online source to get the game installed, and devise a method of somehow live-capturing it through a process that may well be described as witchcraft?", well yes. That's exactly what we did. For you. For Metal Gear.

Here's this year's list of games, in (relative) playing order:

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater (PS3)

Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops (PSP)

Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (PS3)

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes (PC)

Metal Gear Solid V: Phantom Pain (PC)

Metal Gear (MSX2)

Metal Gear: Snake's Revenge (NES)

Metal Gear 2: Solid Snake (MSX2)

Metal Gear Solid (PS1 AND GC *RACE*)

Metal Gear Mobile (Nokia N95 8GB)

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty (PS3)

Metal Gear: Ghost Babel (Game Boy Colour)

Metal Gear Acid (PSP)

Metal Gear Acid 2 (PSP)

Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots (PS3)

Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (PS3)

I got tired just writing that out. But we'll be playing all of them, in one straight week. December 16th at 10AM to the 22nd at 5PM. Tell your friends!
